Parkfield, Calif. ? A strong earthquake shook the state Tuesday from Los Angeles to San Francisco, cracking pipes, breaking bottles of wine and knocking pictures from walls.

There were no immediate reports of any injuries from the 6.0-magnitude quake and its more than 160 aftershocks.

The quake was centered about seven miles southeast of Parkfield, a town of 37 people known as California’s earthquake capital. The town is one of the world’s most seismically active areas, located on the San Andreas Fault.

“Things were shaking so bad you couldn’t tell where to go next,” said Parkfield Vineyard owner Harry Miller, who grows 170 acres of wine grapes. “Trees shaking like brooms, and dust coming from everywhere.”

The quake tipped over about 300 cases of his wine, and five or six of Miller’s buildings, including his home, were damaged.

The quake struck at 9:15 a.m. CDT and was felt along a 350-mile stretch, as far north as Sacramento and as far south as Santa Ana, southeast of Los Angeles. The center was about halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco.

The very few residents of Parkfield, a half-dozen buildings on either side of a street in a valley surrounded by oak-studded hills, pride themselves on the area’s seismic activity. Drivers into town pass a sign reading “Now entering the North American plate.”

“I’ll take my earthquakes over those hurricanes any day,” said John Varian, owner of the Parkfield Cafe.

A magnitude-6 quake can cause severe damage, though any problems are generally far less severe in remote areas and places like California with strong building codes.
